NEW YORK — New York City finished the year with the fewest murders since comparable record-keeping began.

The city’s Police Department says the 2009 year-end total was 466, down from 523 in 2008 and 496 the year before.

It’s the fewest since comparable records were kept in the 1960s. Overall crime is down in the city 11 percent from last year and 35 percent from 2001.
